Have you ever wished you could ride a scooter on stairs? If so, you might be interested in Suzuki’s MOQBA concept, a four-legged scooter that can climb over obstacles. MOQBA stands for Modular Quad Base Architecture, and it combines what looks like the agility of Boston Dynamics’ Spot with the convenience of an e-scooter. Whether you need to travel on flat roads or staircases, the MOQBA can get you there.
The MOQBA also has a modular design that allows for different attachments and modes. You can choose from Chair mode, Standing mode, or Stretcher mode, depending on your needs. Chair mode lets you ride the MOQBA like a normal scooter, while Standing mode makes it easier to climb stairs. Stretcher mode turns the seat into a flat surface that can be used for emergencies or cargo.
Suzuki has not revealed much about the technical details of the MOQBA, but the concept images show its versatility and potential. The MOQBA can be used as a wheelchair, a robotic arm, or a carry basket, among other things. It is not just a scooter but a multipurpose mobility device.
